Unparalleled Cruising Experiences

For The Adventurous Traveller

Experience your dream holiday cruise in one affordable and unique all-inclusive package booked through Bespoke Travel Cruise Agents’ extensive network of cruise ship companies.

Choose to Cruise

Imagine waking up in a different city every morning, exploring historical sites, islands, glaciers or famous art galleries, and never having to pack or unpack a suitcase. Imagine experiencing luxury service on board with tasty food cooked by world-class chefs, high quality entertainment and accommodation options suited to you. Imagine feeling the sea breeze blowing through your hair as you watch the sunset on deck and all your stresses are left behind.

It’s no wonder that cruising is globally becoming the most popular way to travel, and it is not inaccessible to South Africans. We will work with you to design the perfect cruising holiday.

How to Book a Luxury Cruise Travel Package ​

No other mode of travel allows you to arrive, unpack and visit multiple cities and sites from the comfort of your own home. Cruising is just this, your traveling home away from home. The convenience of this travel experience will allow you to enjoy your holiday to its fullest, get off the ship in ports that interest you, or stay on board and enjoy the facilities on the ship while everyone else is shopping on shore.

Incredible Cruises And Great Value For Money

One of the main benefits of a cruising holiday is the nearly all-inclusive nature of the experience. Accommodation, meals and entertainment are included in the cruise fare. Organising all of these arrangements separately will always be more pricey than booking a cruise, not to mention the stress of packing and unpacking while traveling between destinations. A cruising holiday really does tick all the boxes when it comes to convenience and budget.

All Inclusive Cruising Itineraries

From a planning perspective, there’s not much you need to do. Since everything is included on the cruise ship you don’t need to stress about anything else once you’ve booked the trip. Bespoke Travel will assist you with any extras you would like to include on board, such as drinks packages and any shore excursions you may want to plan privately over and above the multitude of activities and tours already offered by the ship.

Family Friendly All The Way

Cruising is the perfect option for a family holiday. With a multitude of activities to keep children entertained, parents can feel comfort in knowing that the ship provides a safe and monitored environment for children to play. All cruising activities children partake in are supervised by professional child minders and sports instructors. It’s a win-win for children and parents alike.

Activities Galore

Today’s cruise ship experiences are designed to satisfy every kind of traveler. Want to pamper yourself with a spa experience and eat at a five-star restaurant afterwards? Or perhaps you’d like to do some exercise on board? It’s all right at your doorstep. And if you feel like doing nothing and just relaxing while the ship sails from port to port, then grab a sun lounger and order a cocktail.

Crystal Cruises

Crystal Cruises is the epitome of luxury and value. From the moment you step aboard the Crystal Symphony or Crystal Serenity, you become so much more than a guest, you become a privileged member of the Crystal family. Crystal Cruises has been voted the world’s best large ship cruise line for a record number of years and it’s easy to see why. The 6 star refined services and unsurpassed on board lifestyle, world class enrichment programmes on board and ashore are tailor made for guests who demand the finest in luxurious travel experiences. Complimentary fine wines, champagne, premium spirits and gratuities for housekeeping, bar and dining staff are included on all voyages. Crystal Cruises has left no stone unturned to ensure your Crystal Cruise experience is nothing less than incredible and valuable. On Crystal, the difference is Crystal clear.

Of course, on-board their two 694-guest ships the experience is more country club like, with a higher staff-to-guest ratio to ensure that all of your needs are not only met, but anticipated. They say it’s the destinations that will attract you… but it’s the staff and crew who bring you back.
